The use of cameras and issuing of fines is being considered to deter motorists from flouting the rules by taking up road space dedicated to bus routes, the National Transport Authority (NTA) has said.

The NTA said that so-called "bus gates" will play a major part in Cork's €600m BusConnects plan, especially where full bus lanes cannot be installed.
